Hey Mini,
Without any additional experience with the plugin I would assume you are
having issues because it's meant to run under a web app with its own OpenBD
instance. I know I there used to be some issue with the cfscheduler as well
when run under an OpenBD instance with multiple sites and tomcat. Hopefully
someone can confirm or give more direction soon.
